Sasuke from the Naruto anime...I hated him since episode 1, and he is to me the best anime rendering of a heartless psychopath I ever seen. This guy is really creepy and I wonder why he is so popular. Other "bad guys" in this anime do have understandable motives for the way they behave and all have a soft spot...Sasuke is nothing but condensed hatred:EWW!

I guess it makes Sakura even more stupid looking for not seeing past his good looks...and exposing herself to a merry future of abused wife.So many girls make that mistake...

Wow, so you guys can hate just because you can. So far, I read a lot of the responses and none of them gave a valid reason why they are hating the said character. I don't have a hate for any character but I do have a dislike for characters that:

1) who can either die or be dead and it won't effect the story or plot no matter if they are there or not. Those characters get to me because; A) they are almost always annoying. think they are funny but really they are really stale. And C) They contribute nothing to either the main characters growth of the storyline.

2) I really can't stand wimpy girls especially the ones where they change love interests like flipping a coin. Or they love two or more guys and can't pick because they LOVE THEM. When I see these characters I really want to kick them in the head; because to me, I can tell what kind of love that I love them with. I mean these girls are greedy in trying to hog all the love to themselves. Grow up.

3) I can't stand guys who play stupid. I mean real guys are not that stupid. I mean they (real guys) can be annoying but they are not like blundering stupid and blush at just seeing some skin. Or better yet, can't make up their minds because 2, 3, or 4. .. girls are into him and he can't pick. I mean think who is special to you and just pick damn it. (as you can tell I hate Harems especially if at the end he doesn't pick one at all and THINKS he's a pimp. Plus, guys that are portray in harems have nothing special and so I can't even see why these girls dig him. Most of them are really below average I.Q. and have these cold and/or gloomy attitudes that I really want to punch them.)

4) then there are the characters where the main guy/girl is 1: Oblivious to his/her existence but still cling on and drag the story down.
2: Has express friendship and nothing more, but is causing trouble for both main characters only adding to the fuel to the plot and nothing else progressing negatively or positively. I mean come on. . . .you can grow as a character too. . .Stop stalling in one place in time. Grow damn it.

I can go on and on. .. but I won't. I guess you can guess what I am trying to point out. THAT ALL ANIME SERIES HAVE MANY ANNOYING CHARACTERS THAT I KNOW CAN DISAPPEAR AND IT WON'T AFFECT THE DARN STORY> > > >BUT FOR SOME REASON THE WRITERS LIKE THEM.

So I have to ignore them the best as I can and see what kind of impact that they bring to the overall plot or series.

Truthfully, the only anime series that I find every character adorable is Ookikku Furikabutte and Natsume Yuujinchou. (those are the two that I can say at the top of my head.

Oh yeah. . .I second those that they say we need more characters like Revy from Black Lagoon and Balsa from Seirei no Moribito. And as for guys, I find most shonen/ seinen guys appealing once they get their determination and priorities straight. But my all time fav guy has got to be the guy from "Until death do us part" Mamoru Hijikata. I suggest all of you to read that manga.

WOW lol............ you took your time writing this lol..............
So you mainly give a reason without a response....
All of these characteristic that you hate from an anime character, you didn't even named one, that you disliked lol
Well...... i can see what your pointing at.....
Well i agree with you. in all of your reasons
I didn't check that anime called ookikku Furikabutte before,, but i will, after you pointed it out... However Natsume Yujinchou was for me one of the most boring anime ever... The guy, keep doing the same thing over and over on each episode.... No sudden event nothing at all in the all story happened. I kept watching thinking that something would happened on the next episode, and anime ends, and nothing happened...i was disappointed it had a good plot, and idea but at the end nothing..... (well that's for me)

well,,,, i would say that we need more characters like Reiji from Phantom: Phantom of the Requiem. (i like that guy, He seem realistic)
And Touya from White Album (i know that a lot of people hated that anime, because they didn't like the outcome, but i loved it,,,, and i liked that character, because he have done, the exact thing, that i would've done, if i was in his place... I though that anime was a good anime of slice of life...... ) (i am not that fan of slice of life animes,, because there kinda boring,,, but i loved that one)

misa- I honestly dont get why everyone makes her out to be some cool, goth girl because of how she dresses when really she's an annoying immature teenager who's too stupid to realise that light is so obviously using her! You'd think that even a fictional character of her brain capacity could work that out....Also I hate going to expos and being overwhelmed by misa cosplayers!

YukixKaname-I hate these characters AND this pairing, basically all I can say about it is "EW!" seriously whats so cute and romantic about incest!?!

All Special A people- WAAAAAH! I like this anime and these characters but it annoys me how they're inhumanly brilliant at everything!

Ouran Highschool Host Club(Twins)-I don't even remember they're names but this goes back to YukixKaname thing.....GOD DAMN INCEST!!!! And as if it couldn't possibly get any worse....GAY INCEST!!!!! Geez I reeaaallly don't get what's so great about yaoi and yuri?It's not like I have anything against gays or anything but why the fuck are there all these sreaming fangirls going crazy over yaoi?!?!
